fail2ban Reporter
Auto-report fail2ban banned IPs to AbuseIPDB, protecting the community from brute-force attackers by sharing threat intelligence globally.
🚀 fail2ban Reporter automatically detects when attackers are blocked by fail2ban and reports them to AbuseIPDB, a global abuse database. This turns your local security into community protection — every report helps block attackers across thousands of servers worldwide. Set it up in minutes with a free API key.
💡 Perfect for server administrators tired of brute-force attacks. Whether you're running a single VPS or managing multiple servers, this tool eliminates manual reporting and keeps your logs clean. Works standalone or integrates seamlessly with Clawdbot for voice-controlled security monitoring.
✨ The real power: attackers banned on your server get flagged globally. When other admins check IPs against AbuseIPDB's blocklist, they're already protected from threats you've already seen.
